Read any manga or manhwa, in your language

Upload a raw chapter — AI auto-detects Japanese or Korean, erases the original text and redraws every page in English or Chinese.

How it works

From raw chapter to readable in three steps

  1. STEP 1

    Drop a chapter

    Images, PDF, ZIP or CBZ — up to 300 pages. PDF pages are rasterized right in your browser, so the file never leaves your device.

  2. STEP 2

    AI translates the page

    Japanese or Korean is auto-detected. Every balloon is located, the original text erased, translated and typeset back in place.

  3. STEP 3

    Read or take it with you

    Read the translated pages in your browser as they finish, or download a CBZ that opens directly in Mihon or any comic reader.

Before / After

One pass. The raw page becomes readable.

A real page from an officially free chapter on Shōnen Jump+ — balloons detected, text erased, redrawn and typeset back, exactly as the pipeline does it.

The same page after MangaFluent Quality-mode translation — balloons erased and English dialogue typeset back in placeRaw Japanese page from an officially free Shōnen Jump+ chapter — original speech balloons, sound effects and screentone
OriginalTranslated

Rendered with Quality mode — Fast mode skips the artwork check but erases and re-typesets the same way.

Two engines

Pick speed or polish, per chapter

Same pipeline, same typesetting — the difference is whether the AI looks at the artwork before it translates.

Fast mode

Text-only AI translation

~10 s/page

The model translates the detected dialogue without looking at the artwork — with the same chapter glossary as Quality mode, so names stay consistent. Quick and cheap — perfect for speed-reading raws the day they drop.

  • OCR text translated directly
  • Chapter glossary keeps names consistent
  • ~10 s/page
  • 1 credit per page

Quality mode

Vision AI proofreads every page

~40 s/page

The model sees the full page: it fixes OCR misreads, uses who-is-speaking and scene context, and catches sound-effect nuance. Slower, noticeably better.

  • Sees the artwork to verify every line
  • Speaker, tone and SFX nuance
  • Chapter glossary keeps names consistent
  • ~40 s/page
  • 2 credits per page

FAQ

Questions, answered

What is MangaFluent?+

MangaFluent is an online manga and manhwa translator. Upload a raw chapter and the AI detects every speech balloon, erases the original text, translates it, and typesets the translation back onto the page — ready to read in your browser or export as a CBZ for readers like Mihon.

Which languages are supported?+

Source language (Japanese or Korean) is auto-detected from the first page — you never have to pick it. Translations are available in English and Simplified Chinese.

What is the difference between Fast and Quality mode?+

Fast mode sends only the recognized text to the AI, so a page finishes in about 10 seconds at 1 credit. Quality mode lets a vision model look at the artwork to verify the text, understand who is speaking and catch nuance — about 40 seconds and 2 credits per page, with visibly better results. Both modes use the same chapter glossary, so character names stay consistent either way.

What files can I upload?+

Multiple images (JPG, PNG, WebP), a PDF, or a single ZIP/CBZ archive — up to 300 pages and 100 MB per chapter, with each page up to 20 MB and about 25 megapixels. Very tall webtoon strips should be split into segments before uploading. PDF pages are rasterized in your browser; the PDF file itself is never uploaded.

Are my uploads private?+

Yes. Pages are stored only to run your translation and are deleted automatically within 24 hours. Jobs are tied to an anonymous browser session (or your account, if you're signed in), so only you can see them.

How does the free trial work?+

No account needed to try: translate up to 3 pages a day at full Quality mode — the same engine paying users get. When you sign in with Google you get 30 bonus credits (enough for a full Fast-mode chapter), and paid plans add thousands of credits per month.

Can I read a chapter locally without translating it?+

Yes. After you drop files in, the preview grid doubles as a local reader — click any page to read the whole chapter fullscreen. Nothing is uploaded until you press Translate.
